Julie helps people build profitable businesses by giving them the tech & strategy they need to stand out online. Think growth-hacker-meets-coding-geek-wanna-be-topped-with-a-serious-case-of-design-addiction-and-marketing-OCD. And you should see her design a Sales Page live! Just sayin'.

Julie’s clients are online entrepreneurs - they build businesses from scratch, launch courses that sell, and create products and offers that are branded and designed to convert. Julie’s client work is top notch. With an astonishing array of talent {from copy to design to code to marketing strategy} she’s built a six figure business out of a blogging career that started over 5 years ago.

With a family of 6 to support, Julie knows how to hustle, find clients, do solid work, gain referrals….and train others to do the same. She runs a solid business that brings in well over 15k per month, all while wrangling 4 children and her own life with her new husband Alex.

Her experience on the ground over the past 5 years is what makes her LOVE helping other freelancers achieve success. The freedom to raise her family in the way she wants, the financial security to support them, and her kick ass experience networking with and signing clients, give her PLENTY to talk about when she works with CYLL students.

Anyone would be lucky to have her for an hour. Having her online in a community plus weekly coaching calls over a year, is an opportunity second to none.

ABOUT MADELAINE

{from the desk of Julie}

The first time I met Madelaine, she was my client {true story}.

I'd had a lot of clients in similar industries as her, but never had I met someone so on the ball, together, and professional. We clicked immediately, and I could tell..she had skills I knew not of.

I helped her launch the BETA version of what is now CYLL, and it was wildly successful because Madelaine just intuitively KNEW how to connect with people, help them feel heard, and deliver great content about all the nitty gritty details of business building.

She was {and still is} is a Virtual Executive Assistant who works with high-end clients in the Leadership Development Industry. When I say she is focused, dedicated, and detail oriented, I mean it. You should see her assign me tasks in Basecamp.

Madelaine started her Freelance business after her third major burn out before the age of 30. She was exhausted and miserable working a corporate career that was (in her eyes!) taking her nowhere (fun!). She realized that the ladder she was climbing was not on the right wall.

There are a lot of details to consider when starting up her freelance business: tracking finances, sorting out how to get ready for tax time, time management, automation processes, sorting out how to communicate with clients online. And what I noticed was how flippin' good at it she was.

She almost made it fun?! What was this wizardry she performed?

Helping freelancers get a business set up professionally, and land their first clients exhilarates her. She's the kind of mentor who will cheer wildly when you take what she's taught you and go further than we even are right now. There's not a mean or competitive or slimy bone in this Canadian's body, And she loves sharing her knowledge and experience with others in an authentic and professional way.

In her spare time Madelaine spends time focusing on her family - her husband Jarrett and their two corgis. Oh, and her garden.

Madelaine’s goal in life is NOT to have a Corporate career, or make 10 million dollars. Madelaine’s goal in life is to live a good life, work with great people, and have the time and energy to enjoy life’s simple pleasures.

Also, she bought me a new bra, sight unseen, in a wedding day emergency. You can trust a woman who can pull that off.

Never before, in the history of the planet...has the ability to make money been MORE accessible than it is today.

We're seeing the democratization of EVERYTHING...

Uber lets anyone become a taxi driver...

Air BNB lets anyone become a "hotel" owner...

Amazon lets anyone sell anything as a shop owner...

Even the growth of crypto currency has teased our society with the sober truth...We can be our own bank without a third party.

With jobs and careers...the shift is happening there as well.

More people than ever are taking to the Internet to build and grow their own shops, info-product businesses, agencies, and empires. You don't need to rely on a company or organization to fund your retirement or give you a steady paycheck...

You have the ability, right now...today.

Here's the problem...

It takes a WHOLE new set of skills than the ones you learned in school.

It takes a WHOLE new mindset than the one society taught you so you could get a job.

It's a different way of life, way of earning, way of being. Building an online business is the most exhilarating, rewarding, and exhausting thing you'll ever do.

And most of you are not truly ready for the highs and lows of entrepreneurship.

I know this because it happened to me.

I was a dabbler on the Internet business scene back in 2012.

I knew I could make money online, and I did a little here and a little there, making a few hundred dollars a month.

I wasn't too worried about it all...until one day...my entire world collapsed.

Divorce.

Pregnancy.

No job.

No insurance.

No retirement or cushion or savings account.

My "dabbly" little Internet business now seemed completely unable to help me out of the life crisis I was in.

In complete panic mode, I started to push harder in my business. I knew there was money to be made, but I didn't know how to break out of the rut I was in.

No amount of hustle or grit seemed to make $2,000 a month become more. I grew yes, but I hit a ceiling. Again and again.

Why did I see other people around me making SO MUCH, and I wasn't?

I would endlessly read income reports on bloggers I followed and felt so much jealousy and envy. I needed to have a $23,000 month or a $10,000 day too.

And I couldn't. Not doing the same thing I had been doing.

There were two things I needed...but I didn't know it at the time. It took months of slogging through guru blogs and offers before I realized what IT was.

When I figured it out?

Everything just blew up.

I went from making $23-$70k a year to making $325k...

And eventually...I cracked the "million dollar year".

It happened so fast I wasn't able to keep up with my taxes or my business systems or anything.

All because of these TWO things that changed it all.

So I bet you want to know what those two things are?

Most people get the first one.

The answer?

A digital marketing skill set.

This suite of skills is defined by the ability to find and make money on the Internet. It's the lifeblood of every business, no matter what industry, and the more digital marketing skills I learned, the more money I made.

There was a direct correlation that continues to work for me...and hundreds of my students.

But the second thing I needed? Many people miss this.

In order to succeed in business, you NEED a DREAM 100.

The Dream 100 is a symbol of sorts.

It's a list of 100 people who will make your business grow.

These 100 people have connections, resources, ideas, audiences of people, and complimentary offers that will help your business grow exponentially.

At first I thought solopreneur meant "solo".

But after watching all the big time earners work their magic, I realized...they all had a posse.

A network.

A club of people who had their back.

Once I figured out this whole "network" thing, business absolutely exploded.

These two things...digital marketing skills, and a Dream 100...made all the difference in the world.

So where do you find these two things...for YOURSELF?

There are a TON of Facebook groups and LinkedIn groups and memberships and programs and masterminds. TONS. The selection is overwhelming (trust me, I know). And to build these two things...it takes time.

Time is the number one resource in the world...so wasting it on crappy courses and bad relationships is a HORRIBLE idea.

Still...how do you choose which one is right for you?

First, I would make sure there’s a trial run so you can feel how the community works. You need to know if you’re going to like the people you’re hanging out with right? If these people will be the ones to help you get off the ground.

​Second, I would be sure that the group owner is touching base with his/her members at LEAST once a month. You want a leader who has a pulse on what's working RIGHT NOW, and can share it with you.

​Third, look at the social proof. Ask people in the program if it’s a good program, if they’ve noticed a change in their skills, strategy, business relationships, and revenue.

​Fourth, make sure the owner of the group has done what you want to do. Have they built an agency? Launched a course? Run an e-commerce business? It doesn’t make sense to follow a “guru” if they haven’t done what you’re trying to do.

After trial and error-ing my way through it all, I committed myself to growing a community using these two FOUNDATIONS at its core.

My membership community does everything I needed when I was first trying to scale to $100,000 a year.

I offer a trial run, so you can test it for yourself.

I go live every week, 52 weeks a year for live coaching in the field of digital marketing.

I make my members' results...the evidence of its success.

I am transparent in my acknowledgement that the TWO business types I can help are - online-based businesses and service providers and agencies (these are the business models I've succeeded in).
